TEREPHTHALATE (PBT)

Introduction
PBT - Polybutylene Terephthalate is the
synthetic thermosplastic compound of 1-4-Butylene glycol with DMT or PTA.
It was widely used in electronic, electrical, communications, fiber optics
and automotive industires.
There are two kind of PBT product - PBT Resin and
PBT compound.
PBT Resin is the base resin while PBT
compound are combination of PBT resin, fiber glass filling and other
additives such as UV protection agent, and flame retardant.
